Update from Portland: supplies running low. Please send fig jam and artisanal cheeses. For the jam, prefer GF, vegan, small batch, processed by a guy named River, who only stirs it during Mercury retrograde.

I think itโ€™s time to boycott ABC and Disney. They have capitulated to pressure from the Trump Admin in a direct attack on the 1st Amendment.

Having Hakeem Jeffries in a position of leadership in this moment is like intentionally having an alarm clock that doesnโ€™t actually wake you up.

Make no mistake, this is not what happens in a healthy democracy. We are in an autocracy and us proverbial frogs are starting to boil. We need to all speak out. Noโ€ฆshout out. Before itโ€™s too late.

The fact that someone like Netanyahu, who is in the act of committing genocide, is even allowed to nominate someone for a Nobel Prize makes me think it might be time for a new award.

It doesnโ€™t feel right to celebrate a country today that is dehumanizing the most vulnerable people in our society. Cruelty is not something to be celebrated.

We are a nation of immigrants. Most of our parents & grandparents were immigrants who came here searching for better lives. Now we are dehumanizing & scapegoating immigrants, sending them to detention camps with little food & water and with no due process.

Is this an America to celebrate today?
